Nara Hookah Lounge

The gyro is amazing! The staff is always friendly and down to earth! I was able to check out the hookah side which I was impressed with due to the cleanliness and full bar. I will definitely be coming back to check out the hookah for a chill evening.

Worst Customer Service from who seemed like the manager/​Owner. Hookah Sucked… Couldn’t blow any clouds… and It just wasnt ours. Everyone was having issues… Wasn’t a well ran business. Fight broke out and there was to much bad vibes. The place was extremely small.

They have a a full bar and great drinks, tried the Mojito tasted fresh and the alcohol content was on point. I had the lemon mint hookah with an ice tip. Best experience, chill environment and good music, couldn’t have spent my night any other way!

This place is awesome! I was out of town for a family reunion and needed to blow off some steam at night. Found this place through Unilocal and was pleasantly surprised. The hookahs are great and the white gummy bear shisha is amazing! I also got introduced to ice tips for the first time, these things make a huge difference in the smoothness of the hit. The staff was really attentive and added fresh coals like 5 times and the owner Meeno (sp?) was super chill and gave us some good tips on a restaurant to check out in town. The atmosphere was chill and comfortable. Definitely recommend checking this place out!

Nice place, service is very good and food is pretty good too. They are very welcoming and make sure you’re comfortable and having a good time.

I have been coming here for 4 years. I found it on Unilocal and so happy I did. The service is great and the hookahs are the best. Never had a bad one. Love the check in offer to.
I always bring friends here or just come for a fun relaxing night out. The crowds that come are young professionals. So you feel safe and happy. I can leave my purse on the couch and come back with no worries.
Hookah to harsh? Or don’t like the favor? No biggie tell them and they will fix it with a smile. I recommend coming here for a good time, good prices and service.

Great service and food :)
we need an arbic music too ;)
I hope they will serve the great food till they close
it will be nice :)

First time here and so far it’s really great!
Kadashia was our waiter and she’s so genuine and nice.
The hookah hits well, we got the watermelon mint and it taste AMAZING.
And the food is bomb. We got the loaded french fries and the jalapeño popper things.
Really recommend this place (:
P.s a guy that works here is cute. So that helped.

This is my absolute favorite hookah bar I’ve ever been too! The staff is so friendly and they have such a great environment. Love dem! Muah

This place is perfect. Great music, amazing food, the staff is so friendly and always check up on the hookah! Love it! I been to a lot of places and the hookah is harsh, service sucks and the environment is just ratchet. This place is classy, chill and high quality for a great price

Excellent hookah bar. I have been to several hookah bars around the valley and this is one of the best. The hookahs are very smooth and are especially good because they use natural coals. The service is excellent. They also serve food and alcohol so it is pretty much a one stop shop. Try the chicken shawarma.

I’m a a frequent hookah smoker, I have a regular hookah lounge that I attend and help out at, but that’s not the point right now.
I have been to many hookah lounges around the Metro –Phoenix area and decided to try this one out. I walked in and was greeted immediately with a smile and was seated appropriately. The ambiance is great for groups, the place is small but quant. The staff is very friendly and always checking up on you constantly.
NOTES:
— ice tips available $ 5.00
— 1 hose hookah 14.99
— 2 hose, $ 18.99
— Most flavors $ 14.99 EXCEPT:
— Fumari = 16.99, House = $ 15.99
This is definitely worth coming to and the serve food as well. Highly recommended.

Friendly service. The hookahs are clean and smooth. Ambience is relaxing. Will go here again. Good customer service

Nice atmosphere, but doesn’t serve beer. We weren’t hungry, just interested in trying hookah and a few drinks to relax after a long day. The employee would not even let us stay while the storm passed over. I give him a ¹⁄₁₀ for friendliness as well.
Visited at 550pm on a Tuesday evening, the 12^th of August 2014.

The people here are so friendly, food is great, I will definitely come back here if I am in Phoenix again.

I’m not a big hookah kinda guy but this location rocks. They are so friendly and social. I had a great experience the last time I went with friends. Check in and you get a discount on your visit. I believe when I went it was $ 5 off when you spend at least $ 20. I think it was worth the experience and plan to visit again soon. Not sure if every night is the same but they play great music and sports are on. They also serve food and drinks. Grab some friends and check out this place– you won’t be disappointed.

This hookah lounge was surprisingly impressive for a number of reasons:
–atmosphere and décor is CLEAN. Places I’ve been to are generally shoddy and filled with high schoolers that just turned 18/​college noobs. Super comfy couches, loud music (they played Destiny’s Child!!!), and a projector plus TVs (I enjoyed that they had sports center running).
–the servers were on point. Really chill, but changing out coals before us ever having to ask.
–late night food. You can also order off the food menu from the spot next door, Taziki. I ate pita chips and babaganoush all evening, along with a ton of other goodies that I can’t remember the name of– it’s actually an Egyptian food place.
Here’s what I would call downsides, but really hard-​to-​controllables:
–it’s a little tricky to find. Siri got me there but it’s a bit hidden if you’re coming from Elliot.
–it’s BYOB until 10 only. However, I chatted up the owner and there are plans in the future to add a bar, it’s hard to get a liquor license in AZ.
I’ll definitely return again!

It was the typical hookah lounge ambiance, the flavors didn’t seem to be very prominent. They kept pushing us to have a hookah for every 2 people. We had a pretty big group but half of them didn’t smoke. The staff was attentive with changing up the coals but when it came to paying the bill it took over 30 mins because the manager had to close us out. They had a DJ and he played pretty good music if EDM is your taste. We got some sort of loaded fries, really good as well.

I haven’t been to too many hookah lounges in my day, but this is one of the better ones Ive been to. The staff was very nice and attentive and the place had great ventilation so there wasnt smoke all over the place.
Only thing I would have liked differently is the music selection. Personally, I like more a chill selection when I smoke hookah and the music that was playing was a little too «clubish» for my taste. Maybe that was due to the fact it was a Friday night, not sure.
Overall, good experince and would go there agin

The only downside to this place is that they don’t serve alcohol.
Everything else was perfect. Huge hookahs, attentive (but not overbearing) staff, large selection, good prices. Hell, they even have Turkish Coffee. We got some free pistachio baklava samples too, holy moly were they good.
This is a much needed hangout in the Tempe area, especially for people like me that hate Mill Ave.
